Summary: HP 64 bit does not run

Initial Comment:
When building on HP(11.0 or 11.11) we unable to get a successful python interpreter to run, this is with python2.5.
The problem seems to be due to changes to make the windows 64 bit build work. The integer sizes that are being returned for HP are bigger than what is allowed for  python. 
Due to the sensitive area of this code, makeing this change caused alot of other errors to occur.

I can only repeat what I said there: please provide exact error messages,

copying them literally from the screen. In any case, it's unlikely that
this will get fixed, as there are no HP-UX experts around to look into
the issue.

Here is a link to a discussion thread to see if anyone else had any
information on the HP11 64 bit build on python2.5

Can you please provide a precise description of the problem: what did you
do, what happened, what did you expect to happen instead?
